The Place

I'd like to think that I do know my area pretty well.

Places I've been as of summer of 2010

There are some routes that I follow everyday... Time to stray from the beaten path

Been everywhere map (not)

Since I signed up for this task about a year ago, I've done a good bit of traveling. The green is additional places I travel through to go to places I work or to friend's houses. The light blue is the area that may school buses have dropped me off at. Right next to that is the route I go the library though (my friend and I actually got jumped by some kids over there the other winter). Then, the red is all the places my friends and I, or myself alone have aimlessly wandered. We've been all through the skyways of Down Town. It is in fact a favorite hobby of ours to go there in the winter, just as they're closing (less people) and find a particularly deserted one to play a game in. Now that the weather is nice though, we tend to meander up and down the river banks more, around the mills or the Guthrie theater. Up to the far right is the Diagonal bike trail, a particular little jem we stumbled upon one day that is great for getting to the Rosedale Shopping mall. Then the red in the lower right, above the University, where last summer we went on a fun little escapade. To make a long (embarrassing) story short, one that ended with us running for our lives.

Over in the east of NE

Pretty skies.

Northwestern Terminal

An old rail road depot we passed that got turned into condos or something.

Always Sunny On Summer Street

bike trip 4

We passed a school bus depot, interesting to see where they store these.

Traffic Street...

Has no traffic on it

Over by all the highway construction

"Oh crap dude, I hope my iPod doesn't catch fire, then we'd be screwed!"

bike trip 7

Kitty Graffiti

Can anyone get a translation for me? Or a language?

Serene Location

Over at Elliot park in our pass through the South Eastern part of Downtown

Aut Raiaor Reair

Looks legit!

Pretty house in North

I guess I don't go over to North side that much, but there are some really nice houses over there. Here are a few we particularly liked.

My map filled in

Finally, after four hours of biking, I have my map filled in, or as much as I care for it to be. I guess the next step is to take and even bigger map and... GO!

Stefan's map

Stefan also accompanied me on this bike trip and decided to make his own map. It was very similar to mine (even though the printed map was slightly larger, but we decided to go off the area of my map).
